The latest line of extended-temperature proximity sensors from Balluff doubles the maximum temperature rating of standard sensors. This makes them ideal to battle the heat found in many industrial automation environments including robotic weld cells, where localized temperatures increase due to radiant heat from frequent weld flashes and conducted heat from molten welded materials. Where […]
High-temperature sensors for welding, stamping applications
The latest line of extended-temperature proximity sensors fromBalluff doubles the maximum temperature rating of standard sensors. This makes them ideal to battle the heat found in many industrial automation environments including robotic weld cells, where localized temperatures increase due to radiant heat from frequent weld flashes and conducted heat from molten welded materials. Where conventional […]
Balluff proximity sensors detect objects in temps up to 230 °C
Balluff’s family of high-temperature proximity sensors are designed and tested to provide reliable non-contact object detection in ambient temperatures up to 230 °C/446 °F. This level of protection is required for hot metal stamping, glass manufacturing, steel and aluminum manufacturing, steel forging, steam curing, and other high-temp processes. Two main features allow these sensors to […]
Balluff M18 steel face sensors increase uptime in harsh environments
To combat the pervasive problem of premature sensor failure in harsh welding and stamping applications, Balluff has expanded its family of rugged steel-faced inductive proximity sensors to include additional models in the popular M18 tubular form factor. Compared to conventional plastic-faced sensors, the stainless steel sensing face fights failure from impact, abrasion, and erosion while […]
New flow switches from Balluf warn users of reduction in flow
The newest flow switches from Balluff alert users to potential failures due to a reduction in necessary fluid flow. The recently released BFF series of flow sensors, which are available in both thread-in and inline versions, provide a switching output that is activated when the flow falls below a user-defined rate. This makes it possible […]
Rugged through-beam sensors resist chemicals, coolants and more
A new family of stainless steel fork sensors with resistance to aggressive cleaning agents, chemicals, coolants or other media provides a viable solution for demanding environments in a variety of applications including hygienic. These sensors are suitable for the packaging, food and beverage industries. These sensors can be used in other applications and industries that […]
Robust space saving flat-pack photoelectric sensor
Balluff’s new family of flat pack compact photoelectric sensors provide a powerful solution for demanding environments and industries with space restrictions. The sensors, which include a stainless-steel housing, are resistant to aggressive cleaning agents, chemicals, coolants or other media and meet the requirements for packaging, food & beverage industries. “The new flat pack photoelectric family […]
Smart photoelectric sensor from Balluff is easily configured via IO-Link
Generating, transporting and processing information are central tasks in the Industry 4.0 environment. The basis for all this information is intelligent sensors which provide the required input. With its new BOS 21M ADCAP, Balluff has created a smart photoelectric sensor. The versatile all-rounder uses red light and lets you choose from among four sensor modes: background […]
Ceramic caps from Balluff provide sensor protection and extend life
Balluff’s newest ceramic caps extend sensor life and minimize downtime by providing a layer of needed protection to the face of sensors in harsh conditions. The caps, which can be added easily before or after installation, protect flush mount sensors from high temperatures, weld spatter, abrasives, and impact. Often made of aluminum and magnesium/aluminum alloys, […]
Balluff creates sensor protection device to reduce impact damage
Balluff has introduced Face Savers — a game-changing accessory to extend sensor life. The new-to-market face saver can be added to a flush mount sensor to increase the life of the sensor by protecting it from impact damage due to over travel and hostile application environments. “Face Savers can almost be considered a ‘Machine Up-Time […]
